    This is my favorite book of all time. I have read it and Eldest 5 times each. This game gets a ten from the book. Wheather or not they screw the game and the movie up we will seen but I am hoping that their both worth ten. The only dumb move, not having peter direct it but I supose he is to busy with the halo movie. oo well hopefully it still rocks ( Posted on 9/27/06 )

    It's à awesome book, awkward camera, repetive Gameplay but it is best played in Coop, its much better if you have actually read the book but otherwise à fun albeit short game

  1. An excellent treat for fans of the books and soon to be fans of the film. The game covers a lot of territory while doing a great job of bringing a decent amount of challenge and thrills to the masses.

    Eragon isn't worth the brief amount of time it takes to play through it. The gameplay and presentation aren't up to snuff and the storytelling cutscenes don't do their job at all.
  3. While it's true that Eragon is not a game that will change your life or keep you hooked to your TV for 60 hours, it is a really damned fun co-op title where you and a buddy can wreak havoc on big orc-like critters with sick-looking neck-snapping and gut-stabbing moves.
